Mechanical Properties and Energy Damage Evolution Mechanism of Basalt Fiber-Modified Tailing Sand Cementation and Filling Body Mechanics

Abstract

In order to investigate the mechanical properties of basalt fiber-doped tailing sand cemented filler and the evolution of energy damage, a uniaxial compression test was carried out on the basalt fiber-doped tailing sand cemented filler specimens to analyze the energy dissipation characteristics, and the damage constitutive equations with different basalt fiber contents were established based on damage mechanics. The results show that with the increase of fiber doping and fiber length, the uniaxial compressive strength and ductility of the filling body show a trend of increasing and then decreasing; the optimal value of fiber doping is 0.6%, and the optimal value of fiber length is 9 mm; the total strain energy, elastic strain energy and dissipation energy of basalt fiber-modified tailing sand cemented filling body at peak stress show a trend of increasing and then decreasing, and the energy dissipation energy of the filling body shows a trend of increasing and then decreasing. The energy dissipation energy shows a trend of increasing and then decreasing, and the energy dissipation energy shows a trend of increasing and then decreasing. The total strain energy, elastic strain energy, and dissipation energy at the peak stress show a trend of decreasing after increasing with the fiber doping and fiber length, and the energy damage evolution process can be divided into four stages: no damage stage, stable damage development stage, accelerated damage growth stage, and damage destruction; in addition, the existing damage constitutive model of the fiber-filled body was optimized, and the damage correction factor was introduced to obtain the damage constitutive model of the filled body with different fiber contents, and finally, after the verification of experimental and theoretical models, it was found that the two stress–strain curves coincided well. Finally, after the test and theoretical model verification, it is found that the stress–strain curves of the two are in good agreement, which indicates that the established theoretical model has a certain reference value for engineering practice, and at the same time, it has certain limitations.
